Can you take biotin even if you are not biotin deficient i am taking 5mg or 5000mcg for my hair growth and i was wondering if that is safe?

Maybe ok. Maybe not.: Biotin deficiency is rare, but can occur in persons with genetic mutations, on long-term antibiotics or anti-convulsants, or who eat a lot of raw egg whites. There is no good evidence that this easily available, over-the-counter supplement is the magic potion to grow hair or prevent hair loss. Biotin is safe to take, but 5000 mcg per day is over 30 times the usual dose, so is not advisable.

Of no use: Taking Biotin supplement will not do you any good nor your hair. Wish you good health! - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Practice safe sex, if you have sex.

Sure: You are wasting your money, and it can mess up some of the special lab tests, such as ferritin and prostate-specific antigen.
